- Abstract
Vibrations and waves are essential topics in science subjects at junior high school. Understanding the basic concepts of vibration and waves is crucial to understanding natural phenomena. This study aims to explore junior high school student’s performance in understanding the concepts of vibration and waves and identify factors that contribute to students’ concept understanding. The research method uses quantitative methods to collect and analyze data. Quantitative methods are used to obtain numerical and objective data, thus allowing researchers to measure and identify the level of understanding of student concepts more measurably. The analysis results, in general, have indicated that student performance in understanding introduction to vibrations and waves is in the low category. Most students have difficulty understanding this material, which is reflected in their low performance in understanding the concepts of vibrations, waves, sound waves, and applications in everyday life. Based on the research findings, efforts are needed to improve students’ performance in understanding the concepts of vibration and waves. The recommendation is to use a more interactive learning approach that can stimulate students’ problem-solving imagination.
